💬 Testimonials:

"No code is a superpower, but combining with a bit of code (Python in this case) takes things next level. Matt's one of the best teachers I know and explains complex topics in an easy to understand way. Each course is easily worth 5-10x the value he charges. Highly recommend checking it out!" -Seth, Founder of No Code MBA

"Very well-structured and approachable way to gain an initial understanding of Python. For the past 6-months or so I have been planning to dive into a self-taught Python course which is many hours long & daunting. Once I came across your course I felt it was a great way to spend an hour or so to cover the basic aspects but also walk away with a completed activity. So thank you for creating this course!" -Mike

"I'm loving this course! It's broken down amazingly well and I'm learning way more than I have in any other coding course I've taken." -Lucas
